Nonprofit Datafolk Club: creative data collection

Creative ways to collect data in nonprofits

In this Nonprofit Datafolk Club workshop we'll be discussing creative solutions for data collection - how can we think outside the box to get the data we need?

You will be put in multiple small virtual breakout rooms to discuss the following questions:

  • How do you currently collect data and what are the pitfalls of these methods?

  • Does anyone have a creative solution/alternative?

  • What are some creative or interesting data collection methods you have come across? What did you like / not like about them? Would they work in your organisation? 

About our Nonprofit Datafolk Club

Every month, our Nonprofit Datafolk Club gets together for a rare chance to share experiences and learning. We meet on Teams for an hour-long facilitated discussion. Throughout the hour you will get a chance to chat to different people in a number of small breakout groups. It’s a great way to meet other data folk working in or with nonprofits and discuss matters of mutual interest.

This is a discussion and peer learning session not a webinar. So come along ready to participate for the full hour.

What’s more, it’s free.

Previous attendees have said:

It was useful to speak to people from other organisations to hear what they are doing. Talking about the challenges we're facing here was helpful and I came away with a clearer understanding of our position.
